My terracotta X Reg Fiesta used to have a spark of about 50 thou, that was a long time ago. I used to be king of the road with my 1.1 X reg fiesta. Watch out Rotherham here I come, god I wish I had those times back. To think I used to be so proud tazzing around Rotherham in a 1.1 X reg fiesta!! Such simple times!! Now it's, let me plug it into our system, oh yes the speed sensor on the left crank shaft manifold has gone, well we think it's that, tell you what we will replace that at a cost of

 
Its new plugs for wife's Focus Auto .

So its a choice of 60...0.5........51.......50..........or 25 thou hhhhmmmmmmmm its Take your Pick time Folks , perhaps easier to buy some metric guages.

I remember that Cortina pugs were 25thou or a Park Drive fag packet.

These new plugs seem to last forever but I don't want them to let us down .

I think I'll match the gap in the old ones with whatever fits and go with that .

 
I am not an old sore git!! HONEST!!

Hahaha Ford, I knew it!! 50 thou!! Knock em on the old concrete steps with the gauge in and pop em back in!! Oh it brings back memories!!

 
remember though that the old ones will be worn a bit,

are you fitting the exact same type of plugs in?

if I could be ar5ed I could go and measure some gauges with my mic, but I cant, its too late. :|

50thou sounds about right for a car tho, or, you could use surface discharge,

 
On the subject of vehicles , after struggling with no fuel gauge on my van since Christmas, got one on tinternet in January, crawled under to see how hard it is to drop fuel tank yesterday, found broken earth wire from gauge, crimp lug , gauge springs into life again .

Anyone want an Escort tank sender unit
